Prince fans act like they're the gatekeepers for all things Prince. They know what's better for Prince's legacy, more than his family or those with a hands-on privilege. Fan will get every Prince and tattoo, cover every Prince song on YouTube, perform it in their cover bands and put that on YouTube as well, use his image and other copyrighted material for shittastic photoshop memes and "tributes", sing along to his music on Instagram and in the car, post GIFs of Prince, and more.

Yet when an established musician who has the chops to obviously sell records, put on great tours, write hit songs and put out quality music drops a skrim of fabric from the garment district to project 30 seconds of one song and sing a few words along with it to, from his heart, pay tribute to a city and the artist they lose their fucking minds.

I mean, I'm really surprised no one has gone after Jessica Biel, or his child Silas Randall Timberlake. I think his parents are alive but divorced - maybe the naysayers could drag them, too. If fans drag former girlfriends of Prince, I'm sure the Timberlakes are wide open.

I don't know what that means. And I said what I meant and meant what I said. I don't know what a gay hollywood or a "gay hollywood" marriage is. I mean, if you sit and think that's a thing in 2018, there is your reward.

Have you seen the comments all over social media.....this place is a walk in the park in comparison!!

Some Prince groups on Facebook are . I’m not really a JT fan and his halftime performance didn’t really do anything for me. At the same time I have little time for those “fams” who think they’re the only proper gatekeepers for his legacy, they’re the only ones who know what he would/wouldn’t approve of (often times it just seems to be whatever they would approve of). I just don’t think it’s a good look for Prince fans to be so hyper sensitive to everything. Sometimes “fams” just need to chill.

True; however, I don't think people are being "hyper-sensitive" when it comes to respecting a Man's wishes. I don't see the argument. Prince said what he said -- why go against his wishes? This does not compute with me......How can it be wrong to respect someone's wishes? It means that you love them........

If Prince fans just sat back and said nothing, then they would be labeled as not caring/not giving a fuck. It's a no-win situation.

Prince told Sheila if she is still here, not to ever let anyone do a hologram of him. I'm sure he meant it when he said it.

..theyre both gay and marry each other to keep straights away from each other

Now THAT is probably the most ridiculous thing I've ever read on this board.

R U kidding? Juvenile is taking a potshot at a legend in one of your songs because of a statement said legend made when casually asked a question by a reporter that referenced another one of your songs. Juvenile is making fun of said legend's height when you are accepting an award for him in his absence. His hubris aside, this clown already left a bad taste in my mouth after the way he treated Janet, but then to say those things about Prince and then go on Fallon after his (poorly recieved) SB show and gush about Prince when we know what happened is pretty rich. The Paisley Park party he threw was something Prince would NEVER have approved of.
